Yesterday I left East Devon as the sun came up at 6:05am and went cross country via Crewkerne, some lovely twisty roads, I felt great for the first time in several months having recently had another op which seems to have done the trick. The car was running great and I was in tune with her, nipping up and down the gears sweeping round the bends with hardly any other cars around. Then it was a quick dash up the A303 for 30 miles, and off at Mere and back onto to some more interesting roads to Salisbury at 7:25, then onto the old A30 to the back of Winchester via Stockbridge, a great road but need to be wary of traffic from side roads. Then the roads through the Worthy's, a great twisty A road, sadly restricted heavily nowadays, not so in my youth! Then up the A31 through Four Marks(where I lived as a child) to Alton to turn up at my best friends at 8:45 unannounced to wake him up with the Aero boom, 127 miles in 2 hours 40 mins, an average of 47mph, not bad consider only 30 on dual carriageway and the rest on old A roads ignored by most nowadays. I retraced the same route home after the Classic car meet near Farnham, leaving Alton at 15:00, stopping 10mins for Fuel, a 5 min drink/refresh stop arriving home in Seaton at 17:45, lovely drive, only one T**t all the way, in a new BMW M something being aggressive behind me on the A303, after I let him past after several miles he continued to push every other car out the way, an accident waiting to happen I'd say. Didn't spoil my day though, just
